Diabetes and tuberculosis are bad companions each other. In this clinical review article on diabetes, the pathophysiology of diabetes is documented from the view-point of both insulin secretory dynamics and insulin action on various target organs. The mechanisms why atherosclerosis is accelerated in diabetes is also mentioned.<BR>Nowadays, there are many modalities to correct the derang-ed glucose fluxes, thus it is not difficult to maintain near-normal glycemic excursions in diabetic patients. Strict glyce-mic regulation is obligatory if the patient with tuberculosis has diabetes.
